Surviving a day in Singapore with just 10 SGD is tough, but possible if you plan wisely! Here's how you can stretch every dollar:
🥐 Breakfast – 2 SGD
Get a kaya toast set at a local hawker center (without drinks)
OR a bao (steamed bun) for around $1–$1.50
Bring your own water bottle (tap water is safe to drink)
🍛 Lunch – 4 SGD
Opt for economical rice ("cai fan"), choosing 1 meat + 1 veg at a hawker center
OR go for a noodle dish like chicken rice, mee goreng, or fishball noodles
Stick to kopitiams instead of food courts in malls
🍜 Dinner – 3 SGD
Get instant noodles (about $1 at supermarkets) + a soft-boiled egg ($0.50)
OR a roti prata (2 pcs) with curry (~$2.50)
🚶 Transport – 0 SGD
Walk or cycle instead of taking public transport
If needed, one bus/MRT trip costs around $0.90-$1.50, so plan carefully
🎉 Free Activities
